Hello folks , This blade has a hand sanded finish to a 600 grit then hand polished with Flitz metal polish to create a nice smooth satin finish on the blade

Steel is 5/32 " A-2 Tool Steel , heat treated to an HRC 60-61

Grind is a stepped flat transitioned to a convex .

O.A.L is 12-1/2" , weight is 11.5 oz.

Blade is 7-1/4" tip to handle , it is 1-3/4" wide edge to spine

Sharpened edge is at 6-3/4" and it is hair topping sharp . I leather strop and then paper strop all my edges , they become scary

Handle is Green Linen Micarta ( I could not capture the green in the pics ) , black liners and 3/16" Corby bolts with epoxy to affix the handle . Bolts used so the shock of chopping will not break loose the handle scales . Also a 1/4 304 SS Lanyard tube .

The lanyard bead is a bead from Joannes arts and craft store , I thought it looked cool .

Sheath to be made upon sale , left or right hand carry , 8 oz leather

$290.00 + $ 18.00 for USPS Priority shipping in the USA . Pay-pal or Postal M/O . My PP is sandlot@charter.net

Very clean Jack - one suggestion: trash the bead and jack up the price $50 :D
